background

I watched a Technology Connections video on reconnecting with our ability to search and collect information. In the video Alec suggest bookmarks as an age-old tool to lessen our dependency on search engines and algorithms.

I love them. Local first. Easy. But.

So.

Hierarchical.

The web is an intricate and associative graph after all, and so are our thoughts. Why try to bend graphs into tree shapes when we already have the hypertext format?

Now, three days later of adventuring into MDN:s documentation, and here is this little prototype! I have never before done any web extension, so it was a journey to even get anything working, and I am very proud.
